It is Canning Season




It is once again time to can those peaches. We were a little late this year. The peaches were late coming on due to the lack of spring we experienced this year. My parents came and we had a great time. We canned 50 jars of peaches. (actually 51 but 1 broke in the canner). They are beautiful and taste yummy. My dad and I pealed the peaches, my mom cut them up and put them in the jars, and Don poured the syrup in the jars and put them in the canner. It was good team work. I am so grateful my folks are willing to come and help us each year. It makes it so much easier and a lot more fun. I can't thank them enough. And I have to thank my darling Don for all his work. He also procured the peaches. Now we can sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor. Ahh, I love it.
